			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It is becoming harder and harder to find the content you want online. No, it&#8217;s not because search engines are lacking (<a href="http://mostlysid.com/google-social-search">they aren&#8217;t</a>). It&#8217;s because websites decide to plaster all sorts of distractions around their content, sometimes even putting ads smack in the middle of an article. What can we consumers do to fight back?</p>
<p><a href="http://lab.arc90.com/experiments/readability/">Readability</a>. I&#8217;ve used this wonderful little bookmarklet to block out all of those unnecessary distractions. One click and it formats the page&#8217;s content into a very easy-to-read layout, sans everything that isn&#8217;t necessary. Give <a href="http://lab.arc90.com/experiments/readability/">Readability</a> a try!</p>

This is exactly what Google Wave needs if it wants to become a mainstream communication tool.</p>
<blockquote><p>With an app store specifically for Google Wave however, the potential for something as great, if not greater than the iPhone App Store is a distinct possibility. Already, independent software developers have built and tested Wave applications that handle such tasks as teleconferencing, videoconferencing, and multiplayer gaming, but while the Apple App Store sells software only for the iPhone and Touch, a Wave marketplace could stock in-Wave applications, along with desktop applications, browser extensions and a world of devices, from laptops, phones, tablets and more with built in Wave support.</p></blockquote>

<blockquote><p>Your voicemail will be routed to Google&#8217;s servers, transcribed and sent to you by SMS or email, if you&#8217;d like, and accessible from your Voice web page (or playable in Gmail). It&#8217;s a similar offering to what services like YouMail have been offering for some time for phones of all kinds, but with seemingly unlimited transcription and storage space. You&#8217;ll also be able to set up custom greetings for each caller to your voicemail.</p></blockquote>

In short, Feedly presents all the articles in your <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RSS">RSS feeds</a> in a magazine-like layout.</p>
<p>Instead of displaying a list of articles in chronological order, Feedly determines which articles you would be interested in and places them near the top of the page. Feedly also doesn&#8217;t focus on helping you read every single article, so that means there is no annoying unread articles number. You only read what you want to.</p>
<p>Feedly syncs with <a href="http://www.google.com/reader/">Google Reader</a>, which means that all of your feeds, read/unread articles, and categories are always up-to-date no matter which way you should choose to access your feeds.</p>
<p>I have all of my Firefox installations set to use Feedly as their homepage, so I can easily see the latest news from across the web. Give <a href="http://www.feedly.com/">Feedly</a> a try!</p>

The problem is that it&#8217;s not easy to follow and keep up with all of those links. Enter <a href="http://www.readtwit.com/">Readtwit</a>. After authorizing Readtwit using Twitter&#8217;s awesome <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OAuth">OAuth</a> integration, the aggregator will crawl your Twitter stream on a regular basis. It follows any links it finds, and it automatically takes all of the webpages it finds and packages them into a neat little RSS feed. Simply subscribe to the feed in your feed reader of choice (mine is <a href="https://www.google.com/reader/">Google Reader</a>) and let Readtwit take care of the rest.</p>
